Hilltop Holdings Inc. Announces Financial Results for Third Quarter 2023

Hilltop Holdings Inc. (NYSE: HTH) (“Hilltop”) today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2023. Hilltop produced income to common stockholders of $37.0 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2023, compared to $32.1 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2022. Hilltop’s financial results for the third quarter of 2023 included decreases in year-over-year mortgage origination segment net gains from sales of loans and other mortgage production income, a decline in the net interest income within the banking segment, and increases in net revenues within certain of the broker-dealer segment’s business lines.

Hilltop also announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.16 per common share, payable on November 28, 2023, to all common stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 13, 2023.

Headwinds that began in 2022, and continued through the first nine months of 2023, including the impact of tight housing inventories on mortgage volumes, declining deposit balances, rapid increases in market interest rates and a volatile economic forecast have had, and are expected to continue to have, an adverse impact on our operating results during the remainder of 2023. The impacts of such headwinds during the remainder of 2023 remain uncertain and will depend on developments outside of our control, including, among others, the timing and significance of further changes in U.S. treasury yields and mortgage interest rates, exposure to increasing funding costs, inflationary pressures associated with compensation, occupancy and software costs and labor market conditions, international armed conflicts and their impact on supply chains, and disruptions to the economy and the U.S. banking system caused by high-profile bank failures during early 2023.

Jeremy B. Ford, President and CEO of Hilltop, said “Hilltop’s operating results for the third quarter reflect a general continuation in market pressures experienced in the first half of the year. While PlainsCapital Bank produced strong financial results for the quarter with a 1.20% return on average assets, the competitive environment around deposits resulted in further pressure on the bank’s net interest margin. HilltopSecurities generated robust financial results as the wealth management and structured finance businesses produced strong net revenues, which more than offset challenging market conditions for the public finance and fixed income capital markets businesses. PrimeLending’s results continued to be impacted by the housing market’s lack of inventory, consumer affordability challenges and a stubbornly compressed gain-on-sale margin.

“As we progress into the final quarter of the year, we will continue to prudently manage our balance sheet, closely monitor our expenses and serve our valued clients.”

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights for Hilltop:

  • The reversal of credit losses was $40 thousand during the third quarter of 2023, compared to a provision for credit losses of $14.8 million in the second quarter of 2023 and a reversal of credit losses of $0.8 million in the third quarter of 2022;
    • The slight reversal of credit losses during the third quarter of 2023 reflected improvements to the U.S. economic outlook and decreases in specific reserves within our broker dealer segment, offset by increases in specific reserves and net portfolio changes within the banking segment.

  • Hilltop maintained strong capital levels2 with a Tier 1 Leverage Ratio3 of 11.92% and a Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 18.60% at September 30, 2023;

  • Hilltop’s effective tax rate was 25.2% during the third quarter of 2023, compared to 21.8% during the same period in 2022.
    • The effective tax rate for the third quarter was higher than the applicable statutory rate primarily due to the impact of non-deductible compensation expense and other permanent adjustments.

________________________________

(1) Net interest margin is defined as net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets.

(2) Net interest margin (taxable equivalent), a non-GAAP measure, is defined as taxable equivalent net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. Taxable equivalent adjustments are based on the applicable 21% federal income tax rate for all periods presented. The interest income earned on certain earning assets is completely or partially exempt from federal income tax. As such, these tax-exempt instruments typically yield lower returns than taxable investments. To provide more meaningful comparisons of net interest margins for all earning assets, we use net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis in calculating net interest margin by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. The taxable equivalent adjustments to interest income for Hilltop (consolidated) were $0.6 million, $0.1 million, $0.1 million, $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for the periods presented and for the banking segment were $0.2 million for each of the periods presented.

(3) Dividend payout ratio is defined as cash dividends declared per common share divided by basic earnings per common share.

(4) Net revenue is defined as the sum of total broker-dealer net interest income and total broker-dealer noninterest income.

(5) Pre-tax margin is defined as income before income taxes divided by net revenue.

(6) Reported on a consolidated basis and therefore does not include mortgage servicing rights assets related to loans serviced for the banking segment, which are eliminated in consolidation.

_____________________________

(1) Effective January 1, 2023, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-02 which eliminated the recognition and measurement guidance on troubled debt restructurings for creditors. Therefore, we no longer present troubled debt restructurings as a component of non-performing loans and assets.

(2) Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing were primarily comprised of loans held for sale and guaranteed by U.S. government agencies, including loans that are subject to repurchase, or have been repurchased, by PrimeLending.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements anticipated in such statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and, except as required by law, we do not assume any duty to update forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning such things as our plans, objectives, strategies, expectations, intentions and other statements that are not statements of historical fact, and may be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “building,” “continue,” “could,” “drive,” “estimates,” “expects,” “extent,” “focus,” “forecasts,” “goal,” “guidance,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “outlook,” “plan,” “position,” “probable,” “progressing,” “projects,” “prudent,” “seeks,” “should,” “target,” “view,” “will” or “would” or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements: (i) the credit risks of lending activities, including our ability to estimate credit losses and the allowance for credit losses, as well as the effects of changes in the level of, and trends in, loan delinquencies and write-offs; (ii) effectiveness of our data security controls in the face of cyber attacks and any legal, reputational and financial risks following a cybersecurity incident; (iii) changes in general economic, market and business conditions in areas or markets where we compete, including changes in the price of crude oil; (iv) changes in the interest rate environment; (v) risks associated with concentration in real estate related loans and (vi) disruptions to the economy and the U.S. banking system caused by bank failures during early 2023, risks associated with uninsured deposits and responsive measures by federal or state governments or banking regulators, including increases in the cost of our deposit insurance assessments. For further discussion of such factors, see the risk factors described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other reports that are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.
